Add last modified time Learn how to build a remark plugin that adds the last modified time to the frontmatter of your Markdown and MDX files. Use this property to display the modified time in your pages.
Uses Git history
This recipe calculates time based on your repository’s Git history and may not be accurate on some deployment platforms. Your host may be performing shallow clones which do not retrieve the full git history.
Recipe Install Helper Packages
Install Day.js to modify and format times:
npm pnpm Yarn Terminal window npm install dayjs
Create a Remark Plugin
This plugin uses execSync to run a Git command that returns the timestamp of the latest commit in ISO 8601 format. The timestamp is then added to the frontmatter of the file.
remark-modified-time.mjs import { execSync } from "child_process";
export function remarkModifiedTime() {
return function (tree, file) {
const filepath = file.history[0];
const result = execSync(git log -1 --pretty="format:%cI" "${filepath}");
file.data.astro.frontmatter.lastModified = result.toString();
};
}
Using the file system instead of Git Add the plugin to your config
astro.config.mjs import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config'; import { remarkModifiedTime } from './remark-modified-time.mjs';
export default defineConfig({ markdown: { remarkPlugins: [remarkModifiedTime], }, });
Now all Markdown documents will have a lastModified property in their frontmatter.
Display Last Modified Time
If your content is stored in a content collection, access the remarkPluginFrontmatter from the render(entry) function. Then render lastModified in your template wherever you would like it to appear.
src/pages/posts/[slug].astro
import { getCollection, render } from 'astro:content'; import dayjs from "dayjs"; import utc from "dayjs/plugin/utc";
dayjs.extend(utc);
export async function getStaticPaths() { const blog = await getCollection('blog'); return blog.map(entry => ({ params: { slug: entry.id }, props: { entry }, })); }
const { entry } = Astro.props; const { Content, remarkPluginFrontmatter } = await render(entry);
const lastModified = dayjs(remarkPluginFrontmatter.lastModified) .utc() .format("HH:mm:ss DD MMMM YYYY UTC");
<html> <head>...</head> ...Last Modified: {lastModified}
... </html>If you’re using a Markdown layout, use the lastModified frontmatter property from Astro.props in your layout template.
src/layouts/BlogLayout.astro
import dayjs from "dayjs"; import utc from "dayjs/plugin/utc";
dayjs.extend(utc);
const lastModified = dayjs() .utc(Astro.props.frontmatter.lastModified) .format("HH:mm:ss DD MMMM YYYY UTC");
<html> <head>...</head>{lastModified}
</html>
